I broke my ankle pretty badly and at first i could put a fair bit of weight on it. Once the shock wore off i could barely even touch it without being in complete agony.

The right thing to do is suspend them both. And although I don't condone violence, but you can say there is a good case of self defence there. The bigger kid was hit first and actually multiple times before hitting back and he only hit ONCE. He could have continue to kick him when he hit the ground but he didn't and he stood back and walked away. That to me is the right thing to do, and I can't imagine it happen the other way round.
Ah well I never claimed it to be true. Thanks for that will add it to the OP.

I think the reason there are two wrongs or rights here is that bullying, like in this case, has to go so far.
As much as we castigate the non violent part of it, very little if anything is usually done. It's only when it escalates or the victim retaliates is there ever an issue which results as in this case, a suspension.
It's a pity really, because often victims are bullied because on a social basis it's deemed they're unable to defend themselves.

Ah, good point.
The smack-down was an overreaction but scrawny kid did well and truly provoke larger kid.
Do we know if the scrawny one received any punishment for the bullying/punching?
Edit: Just read above.
I've actually not once seen a case of physical bullying in any of the schools I was at... are they exceptions to the norm? of course there was fights but never bullying. Verbal stuff that got out of hand but for the most part it got resolved.
Alpha as ****.
Good on him. Possibly a little too much, but hopefully that kid not being able to walk properly will be a nice little reminder of why not to bully people. Especially someone twice your bloody size.
No one will bully him at that school again. Son, I am proud.

The best bit was the girl stopping the bigger kid at possible retaliation at the end ! lol
He did nothing wrong, how you can sue a kid like that, Bullying is serious, it ruins life's to the point of suicide mainly in girls, tbh that kid was stupid for bullying a bigger kid, he is rather large but the power he has is epic.
Lol gogo fat kid. What he did was right in my eyes, twigboy with the small man complex was punching him in the face etc. Fully deserved it. Fat kid should have got his chocolate cake out of his bag and eaten it over his fallen adversary.
And on the internet it shall remain forever.
He will gain status of internet sensation soon.
I am awaiting hulk parodies.

I find the whole video a great watch, I have watched it many times today.
If the school has a poor approach with dealing with bullying (common in many schools) then why not take it upon yourself to correct the wrongs? It happens all over the world and in this instance it was caught on video by the bullies mates.
This action will get the message across and he won't be messed with again. I hold no bars against this kind of thing, that is if the video has been portrayed in true light and he was a victim of on going bullying.
should have broke his ******* legs to be honest

The sad thing is the bully - largely thanks to his parents if that dramatica entry is correct - will quickly assume the role of victim and genuinely delude himself into thinking that he and his friends have done nothing wrong.
I hope the bullying stops for Casey, but I have my doubts. However, with the attention the video is now generating, I think that alone will force the school to act. Although I can still imagine children teasing the lad for being an internet sensation, but that could also quite easily make him very popular. Kids are a fickle bunch.
Let's hope the bully goes somewhere cold soon.

If the little kid didn't have his friends watching him, he wouldn't of done squat to him. It's funny how people change when they have an audience.
